I remember when your memory began to fade
Oh the laughs we used to share
I'd give anything just to hear your voice
Will I forget what you sound like?
As a child I remember all the good times
When you removed your teeth
Who knew when I turned 26 i'd lose you
To the forgetting disease
How could I have helped?
The last time I saw you alive and talking
I got to hear you say I love you
While leaving the room in a hurry
Saying my final goodbye while you could hear me!
A few months went by
Only a few
I saw you laying in your final bed
You looked so scared
I wanted you to not be afraid
I know my cries didn't help
Were you just as scared as I have been?
Could you hear my final song to you?
I remember falling asleep at your feet
Waking up each hour scared I was going to lose you
I knew it was bound to happen
I just didn't want to lose my biggest fan
You loved when I sang
We enjoyed Disney movies together
I heard the rattle...
The same rattle that took my lovely aunt
We woke with you the next morning
Yet you never said anything
All that came out of your mouth was vile
I'm losing my nana
When they pronounced you dead that afternoon
I watched my mom fall for the first time
It was my first blackout as I ran out of the room
Hearing you gasp for that last breath
I'm so lost without you
I want you to visit me
Give me a hug
Kiss my cheek
I was taken outside
I couldn't take losing you
In all the days I was warned and practiced
Losing you I lost myself
One day
One day
One day
I will find us again!
